The latest expansion news is that TCU is set to join the Big 12. I think it’s a nice move for the Big 12. No matter what the Big 12 did, Texas A&M was too far gone to ever come back. TCU is a good football program whose inclusion in the Big 12 is a perfect …

Back during the 2004-2005 college football season 5 teams USC, Oklahoma, Auburn, Boise St. and Utah finished the regular season undefeated. We hoped it would lead to an end to the BCS. It didn’t.

When Pittsburgh and Syracuse joined the ACC, I thought the obvious choice of realignment of the conference would be a North\South Division. As I learned on twitter not all ACC fans are in favor of this. The possibility is that conference might turn into football vs basketball schools if that were to happen, leaving the …

If you’ve been following ACC Football through the first 4 weeks of the season, it’s been uneven to say the least. For every win over an Auburn (Clemson) or Ohio State (Miami) there were embarrassing blowout losses to Temple (Maryland) and Cincinnati (NC State).
